This article discusses some of the main aspects that distinguish different approaches in the debateon the importance of cultural orientations for understanding structures of and ways of doing andthinking politics in contemporary societies. Fundamentally, we attempt to reinforce the idea that anunderstanding of political phenomena requires strengthening the theoretical and methodologicalapproaches that perceive them as cultural manifestations which, as such, involve a dynamic throughwhich people guide and give meaning to their actions. Specifically, the article presents results ofresearch that has been carried out over the last decade regarding the interface between politicalculture and the practices and representations of the Brazilian parliamentary elite following the 1987-88 Constituent Congress. It is a point in time in which it we see differentiated regional identitiesmaking their imprint on diverse political behaviors and styles. This becomes evident in the practicesand representations of differentiated groups within the parliament.
